Musterhaus 7: Stimmen Reste

Volume 7 in the Musterhaus series, which collects Neubauten releases of an even more experimental nature. This record consists of vocal experiments, voice recordings and manipulation of voice recordings, enriched with a couple of left-over instrumental tracks made with polystyrene, electronic pulses, Hammond organ, bass guitar and metal percussion. Some of these recordings have been around for a while but have not been previously released (“Gestern”) or have never been properly recorded (“Semiotische Musik #5”). The center piece (“Kernstück”) is a speed-manipulated rework of the “Vox Populi” section of “Grundstück” including the 100 person “Social Choir”. “Wenn unser bienenfleissiges Treiben einmal unterbrochen wird / noch vor dem Abgrund unserer Wut / dann sehen wir in den Rissen der Notwendigkeit / nur einen einzigen Augenblick.” WRITTEN & COMPOSED BY Jochen Arbeit, Blixa Bargeld, Alexander Hacke, Rudi Moser, N.U. Unruh.
